if you get fucked because you’re still on a Meta platform, why should I feel bad for you?

after all these years, you’ve all had plenty of warning. you should very well know better by now. whatever bad happens is totally on you.

This is mostly an issue for businesses that were using groups, not individuals.

But beyond that, Facebook is particularly difficult to separate from depending on what you use it for. If you don't care about anyone else on it, sure, you can leave the platform. But if you need to communicate with certain people and they won't leave it, especially regional groups, you're stuck.

Nothing I hate more than a company's website being a Facebook page

And when people send me FB links that only display the login wall.
